One of the high profile athletes that has contributed immensely to the growing public interest in DN Galan the last few years, is Mustafa "Musse" Mohamed.
-"DN Galan means a lot to me. Together with the big international championships the race at DN Galan is the most important during the season. The support from the home crowd gives me great inspiration that is not possible at anyother race"
Mustafa Mohamed really appreciates the high level of competition at DN Galan.
– "DN Galan has for many years been a world class event with great athletes, competition and fans. And now that DN Galan is part of the Samsung Diamond League, I think it will receive aneven higher status, a status it deserves".
The future for DN Galan and Stockholm Olympic Stadium is something that the running community is really concerned about.
– "I believe that the future for DN Galan looks good. There will be challenges but I am sure that the organising committee is qualified and experienced enough to handle these things. It was lucky that Stockholm Stadium was not turned into a soccer only facility. I hope that any such proposals don’t come up in the future".
